Time to write to our reps in the Federal Legislature to support this.
Congressman Joe Baca : Press Releases : Baca Sponsors Legislation to End No Child Left Behind Testing Requirements: "Washington, DC – Today, Congressman Joe Baca (D-Rialto) introduced legislation in the House of Representatives that creates a moratorium on the testing provisions in the No Child Left Behind Act, which currently govern the assessment standards used by each of the 50 states. The Save our Schools (S.O.S.) Act amends the Elementary and Secondary Education Act to remove all mandated testing provisions, freeing school districts and teachers from the “teaching to the test culture” and ending an inequitable system that punishes, instead of assists, those schools and students in the most dire need."
